Does anyone know where I can find a long handled grill brush? I'm currently using a Webber 18" w/ brass bristles. I'd like to stay with the brass bristles for my stainless steel grates but I want a brust with a bigger head and need a longer handle! I'm tired of burning the hair off my knuckles. Any help and suggestion would be appreciated!

I have seen long handled brushes at many stores, such as Wal-Mart or Meijer department stores. Since I didn't need one I'm not sure of the prices. I know that some stores are starting to clear out summer inventory...Might be able to find one at a reasonable price.

Thanks for the advice but unfortunately that is what I've got now. I'm using the Weber 18" brush that I bought at Lowe's. It's just not what I'm looking for. I've seen the one Steve uses on his BBQU show (it looks like a two handed snow scraper for your car windshield) but I have no idea where to find it or one like it.
I hope someone can help me find it or one like it, I'm starting to worry the smell of singed hair will taint me grill!

Until you find the brush you want, you might want to use large oven mitts while scraping. I find that really helps.

Thanks for all the advice.
For those of you looking for one like Steve's here's the answer:
I wrote the man himself and he responded that they are working on "bringing it to the market". He didn't give any sense of when or where though.
In the meantime I think I've found a stopgap solution, brush makers call it a pizza oven brush, when combined with a chopped off handle it just might work!
So hurry up Steve we're waiting...Until then its Brush envy for us average joe's...

For anyone interested...
I've seen advertised, or a story on some website or magazine about a grill brush that uses a steel scourer rather than the typical brass or steel bristle brush. It was rated as the favorite of the person doing the reviewing but I don't remember where I saw the article. I'll check into it. Anyway, I went out and purchase some steel scouring pads (by rubbermaid) and they work fabulously! Much better than how my scraper or brush ever worked. I've been trying to find a brush similar to this but have not been able to... I'll let you know.

Just to let all of you people know who inquired about a long handle brush. Until Steve gets some on his website, i found a quick solution. Go online and look for a pizza oven brush. They are about 15 to 20 bucks...but well worth it!!!!!!!
